Storm in a teacup: American workers allege IT firms like Infosys are abusing the H-1B visas to replace them with cheaper, foreign labour.

WASHINGTON: The US Labour Department has cleared Infosys Ltd of any wrongdoing and closed its investigation after American technology workers at Southern California Edison complained their jobs were wrongfully outsourced to foreigners working on H-1B visas, Infosys has confirmed. 

"Infosys fully cooperated with the (Department of Labour) in this activity," the company told Reuters in a statement, noting the company was confident from the start that it had complied with US immigration laws.
